Fear of Public Speaking and How Hypnosis Can Help

What is Public Speaking?

Public speaking, the art of addressing an audience, is a skill that holds tremendous importance in various aspects of life. From delivering presentations at work to making speeches at social events, the ability to communicate effectively in front of others is invaluable.

However, for many individuals, the mere thought of public speaking triggers anxiety and fear. This fear can be debilitating, preventing people from showcasing their ideas and talents. Fortunately, there are methods available to alleviate this fear, and one such approach is hypnosis.

Public Speaking Hypnosis

Why is Public Speaking Important?

Public speaking encompasses various forms, including presentations, speeches, lectures, and seminars.

It involves sharing information, persuading others, and inspiring them through verbal communication.

Mastering this skill is essential for personal and professional growth.

Effective public speakers can capture the attention of their audience, convey their message clearly, and leave a lasting impact.

It is a tool that helps build confidence, enhances leadership abilities, and opens doors to new opportunities.

The Fear of Public Speaking

However, the fear of public speaking, also known as glossophobia, affects a significant number of individuals. The reasons behind this fear are diverse and often deeply rooted.

One common cause is the fear of judgment and criticism. The idea of being evaluated by others can create immense pressure and lead to self-doubt. Additionally, the fear of failure and making mistakes in front of an audience can contribute to this anxiety. Negative past experiences, such as embarrassing moments or being humiliated while speaking publicly, can also amplify the fear.

The symptoms of glossophobia can manifest in various ways, both physically and emotionally. People experiencing this fear may suffer from rapid heartbeat, trembling, sweating, dry mouth, and a racing mind. They may also feel an overwhelming sense of dread, panic, or the urge to escape the situation. These negative reactions can hinder their ability to speak confidently and deliver their message effectively, leading to missed opportunities and unfulfilled potential.

How to Overcome the Fear of Public Speaking

  1. To overcome the fear of public speaking, individuals can employ several strategies. First and foremost, practice and preparation are key. Familiarising oneself with the topic, rehearsing the presentation, and seeking feedback can boost confidence and reduce anxiety.
  2. Joining public speaking groups or taking communication courses can provide a supportive environment to practice and develop the necessary skills.

I recently had a hypnosis session with Fiachra and it was an amazing experience! From the moment I arrived, I felt welcomed and at ease. Fiachra guided me into a deep state of relaxation, and I was surprised at how effective the session was.The personalised suggestions were spot on, and I noticed positive changes almost immediately afterward. I left feeling lighter, more focused, and motivated. I highly recommend him] for anyone looking to explore hypnosis. It truly was a transformative experience!

Having completed 3 sessions with Fiachra, I can confidently say I feel so much better in myself and dealing with anxiety. Fiachra provided constant support via phone calls/text and even voice notes which I found extremely useful to listen back over to whenever I needed. Fiachra has instilled so much confidence in me and my ability to “deal with it as it happens” which is my new favourite phrase. I can’t emphasise enough how the support I received was 7 days a week, through weekends and even while abroad I was able to check in with Fiachra and stay on top of things. Hypnotherapy with Fiachra has been an amazing investment in myself and one I’d highly highly recommend

I found the sessions very beneficial and transformative from a mindset point of view. While I went into the sessions looking to break bad habits and reduce anxiety, I've found they changed my general outlook and made me more confident and less anxious as a result. I'm not quite sure how it works but I'm very happy that the sessions have had a positive impact on me and I've noted continous improvements since completing them

Cannot thank Fiachra enough! The experience was phenomenal - it brought me from a place of constant internal churn of negative feelings and frustration to one of calm, positivity and self acceptance, even after just one session. I was, and still am, amazed by how easy the process was and moreover, that it has sustained ever since! Each session improved on the outcome of the previous and I am so happy that I made the decision to give this a try. I feel better than I have in years, it’s hard to put into words what impact that has, only that I’m very grateful!

I'm not sure there are enough words to explain how amazing Fiachra is and how much he and his therapy has totally changed my life around. I used to be totally consumed by anxiety, constantly creating scenarios in my head and allowing anxiety to control my life and was acting as a paralysis stopping me from enjoying the things I wanted to do and after his hypnosis sessions, it is totally gone. To the point, I don't even know how my anxiety used to make me feel. I strongly urge anybody that is going through anything negative in your life to do this. You will not regret it and unlike counselling you don't need to give your life story in the hope you might understand why you are feeling a certain way, Fiachra will totally remove those feelings through hypnosis and they will not return.

Fiachra was an incredible support throughout my journey to overcome my challenges with presenting. He guided me step by step, showing me a new approach that I hadn't encountered before. If you're looking to transform your mindset and approach to something you find difficult, Fiachra is the person to help you do it. Highly recommend—thanks again!

HiI went to Fiachra in May 2024 for really bad anxiety and panic attacks! Which severely affected my driving , so it was very debilating and totally awful. I spoke to Fiachra over the phone and went to see him and he totally got it.He made me feel totally at ease and assured me I could conquer this after 10 years of trauma I had been through.He was a super guy and was always at the end of the phone to help me.Couldn’t recommend him enough.Dolores

I had a really bad fear of flying so bad that I actually jumped out of a plane a few months ago before it took off. I booked in with Fiachra and after 2 sessions I was up in the small planes in weston airport. After 4 sessions I went to spain and flew so comfortable I was able to really enjoy it. I would definitely recommend giving it a try I put it off as i didnt think it would work but it definitely did. Fiachra also took numerous phone calls and helped me with other issues I had going on, his service is 10/10.

After only 1 session I could see the positive difference it had and overall boost in my confidence let alone public speaking.

I found hypnosis and therapy centre online as I was desperate to try anything that would aliviate my constant panic attacks and living on edge. I booked 3 in person sessions with Fiachra. I was super anxious heading to my first session but only a few minutes after entering and meeting Fiachra I felt comfortable and at ease. Fiachra is really amazing at what he does. I really felt lighter and much more relaxed after each session and my panic attacks were essentially none existent. Fiachra always insisted that I contact him whenever I needed and he would be there to help. A year later I could feel things were starting to slip for me again I was starting to feel panic coming back on. I reached out to Fiachra and he instantly got back to me and very kindly provided me with an online session out of his own time and at no cost to me. Just after chatting to him I felt better. I don't know how this works but it does. Fiachra is such a genuine guy and is really there to help. I am so grateful I crossed his path. Thank you for everything Fiachra !

I don't know how this process works as it seems so effortless but let me tell you it does. I have lived a very self-conscious anxiety driven half-life up to now, afraid to give life my best shot.The sessions with Fiachra showed me how to re-frame things in my head and now everything is different. I feel lighter, I'm just not carrying the weight of the world, I'm the one organising re-unions! Think well, sleep well, live well, that's the new motto!I would genuinely recommend this experience, it's so supportive, positive, transformative. Thanks a million.

I contacted the Hypnosis and Therapy centre to resolve my fear of driving. I didn’t know what to expect as I had never done hypnotherapy before but I saw all the amazing reviews and that helped me decide as I had not found a way to deal with my fear of driving. I had three sessions with Fiachra and his therapy has been life-changing for me. I’ve experienced improvements in all areas of my life, I realised I had had a lot of anxiety that I don’t have any more I feel so aligned with myself and free of fears and worries. And I have no problem driving any more. I wish I had done it long time ago.I did in-person sessions with Fiachra - the space was cosy and quiet. Fiachra is brilliant at what he does! He is very generous with his time as well.I’d highly recommend the Hypnosis and Therapy Centre to anyone considering it! It’s been an incredible improvement of my life. Thank you, Fiachra!

Where do I start... For most of my life I've suffered with anxiety and always trying to avoid meetings or engagement or even family gatherings with the fear my anxiety would get the better of me. It got to the stage where I had to do something about it as I had an important job interview coming up which I didn't think I'd even get shortlisted for. So I contacted Fiachra and from the first phone call I felt a huge weight had been lifted of my shoulders its so weird I'm one of them people I was sceptical about the whole thing. But after a session you feel the change and have that spring in your step , I done 5 session's and its changed my outlook on life completely I've learned so much from it. To anyone who is in the same boat as myself just try it out its life changing and well worth every penny. Fiachra is brilliant and makes you so comfortable straight away. So anyone thinking of Hypnosis I'd recommend this company.Cheers Again Fiachra.Oh and I got the job........

Caitriona and I worked together after I had a bad fall from my horse to retrain my subconscious and get my confidence back. I was very satisfied with the hypnotherapy and the results are becoming more apparent as time goes on.

A really fantastic experience with Fiachra over the course of the 5 sessions and many phone calls(I have to add the phone calls were at no extra cost and he really encouraged me to keep in touch between sessions to ask anything or clarify anything I wanted). He taught me how to see things in a different way, put a different perspective on the way we view how we think and act. His many analogies will stick with me forever as they really ingrain in my head this new way of thinking. He was easy to talk to, very easy to listen to and be guided by and very encouraging. It was a thoroughly worthwhile experience and I would highly recommend it to anyone who has anything at all in their lives they'd like to resolve. Thank you so much Fiachra for your generous time and the huge effort you put into each session and call.

The experience was truly life changing. Through a series of online sessions, Fiachra has helped me overcome childhood trauma and be my true self. I see life now through a totally different lens and can honestly say I am content with every aspect of my life. And if I'm not I can adult my way to resolving anything life throws at me rather than resorting to self destructive ways of thinking and acting.Fiachra is so easy to talk to and you know from the first conversation that you are in safe hands. I cant recommend him enough. Thank you!

For years, I battled with insomnia and its ripple effects on every aspect of my life, from my energy levels to my overall well-being. I found myself relying on over-the-counter meds to cope, which only exacerbated my confidence and aniexty issues in both personal and professional life..Working with Fiachra has truly transformed my life. His approach to simplifying perceived complex issues and guiding me towards the “natural” path has been nothing short of a complete gamechanger. If you feel you are suffering,or in any sort of rut. I cannot recommend Fiachra highly enoughThank you, Fiachra

I have had an incredible experience working with Fiachra over the last number of weeks. After trying a lot of different psychological approaches and techniques to build my inner confidence, Fiachra's approach is the only one that has really worked. In just a few weeks, I feel so much more at ease in myself and I feel I am back to being my natural self and huge positive things are happening in all areas of my life as a result of this work. The key in getting the best from Fiachra's work is to just trust the process and to trust that if its really easy its because its meant to be easy. I recommend everyone should see Fiachra no mattter where they are in their lives and I can't wait for him to write a book, I'm already pre-ordering it!!

I did a few sessions with Caitriona and I have to say I am really feeling the difference in myself. Before my sessions I was struggling with stress management but after speaking with Caitriona, who was very warm, caring and professional through out, I feel so much more at ease and more prepared to deal with the stresses of everyday life. The sessions were always so relaxing and I always looked forward to them! Thank you so much for all your help Caitriona!

I would highly recommend speaking with Fiachra. He changed my perspective on a number of limiting thought processes. Everything from learning to understand anxiety, thinking positively and really looking at how you see and treat yourself. Before the course he said my mind would be blown - I was sceptical, but it really was. A great guy too! If you're looking for a change - then this is a really good start.

Very professional and friendly service. I did 5 online sessions with Caitriona to quit smoking after 20 years, after every session I felt more relaxed and more confident in my ability to make the choice to not smoke. Coming into the busy holiday period I'm so happy to know that I won't be picking up the smoking habit again. Recommended for anyone who thinks they can never stop smoking but want to.

I had 5 sessions with Fiachra and am finished a few weeks now . I was suffering with awful panic attacks and riddled with Anxiety for a couple of years to the point where I could not take it anymore . I was willing to try anything so after some research I found Fiachra . I went into this a bit sceptical but with a very open mind . OK to say it worked is an understatement, I am blown away by the results as I am back to my old self full of confidence and happy go lucky exactly what I wanted from this therapy . I'm very very happy with the outcome 100% satisfied.And as an added bonus if you will I told Fiachra about a huge phobia I had of needles in my veins ie to give blood etc . So Fiachra said I would have this phobia no more so I booked a full health check and today I went to the clinic and gave blood "without passing out as that's what had happened when I tried to give a blood test 14 years ago " . So all in all thank you so much for changing my life and my mindset and outlook on life in general . 🌟😊

Although I will probably never understand how hypnotherapy works, it does and I don’t need to understand. How I will feel in 6 months time I have no idea but what I can say is my mindset is much more calmer with the destructive thoughts that have been haunting me very much in the distance and not able to intrude any more. That is all I asked for, no one can be happy all the time but everyone deserves to have peace of mind and Fiachra has given that to me

I was suffering from chronic insomnia, high anxiety and nervous tension before seeing Fiachra. I had several visits to my doctor, who, after realising that I hadn't slept in over a year, recommended that I go to a sleep clinic. I had been taking OTC medications and other sleeping aids. Having read the reviews Hypnosis and Therapy Centre, I decided to give it a go. My sessions were on line. The best way to describe my experience is that it has been transformative! My life has transformed for the better and I cannot thank Fiachra enough for his guidance and encouragement. I would highly recommend him to anyone seeking to regain control of their life.

I don’t even know where to start! I went to Caitriona with severe anxiety which was impacting my every day functioning with physical symptoms. Right from the start Caitriona was warm and welcoming. Super comforting and understanding. Her professionalism was top notch. Probably the easiest person to talk to and always on hand should I have a bad day. Even after the first session I already felt the benefits! I was more relaxed and equipped with effective methods to help my anxiety. It just got better and better after each session. By the time I had reached my 5th session I felt like a new person, I am now free from anxiety and living life to the full. I cannot thank Caitriona enough, forever grateful!

I decided to do hypnotherapy after having our baby boy. I was living a life in a box I thought I’d never break out of, no getting in lifts, no long car journeys, don’t even mention a holiday. After five sessions with the incredibly thoughtful, kind and genuine Caitríona I finally feel like myself again. Take back the power of your own life you CAN do anything that you want to, Caitríona has helped me reset my mind to focus on the positives of these things rather than the negatives that might never happen!

I have struggled most of my life as being a fussy eater due to an incident that happened when I was younger. I have tried other methods of hypnosis in other clinics that did not work.Fiachra was amazing in helping me over come the fear of this and been able to eat and try new foods. I would definitely recommend Fiachra to anybody.

Cáitriona was so patient and brought me to a place, FINALLY, that I am in control of my eating behaviours! I was your classic strict "12-week body transformation" gym goer, followed by months of binging and putting it all back on. I was obsessed with counting calories and being extremely hard on myself. I now allow myself to eat what I want with ease and in quantity I choose. I have released weight in a healthy sustainable manner whilst feeling the best version of me. Thank you Cáitriona for helping me heal myself.

Fiachra's hypnotherapy method has been a life changing experience to me. I have done 2 different types of hypnotherapy in the past, both successful but never had they've been able to tackle 35 years of bad habits due to unresolved trauma. Fiachra simply helped me becoming the normal version of myself, as he puts it, if my traumas hadn't impact me. I would and will recommend it to anyone seeking healing. Fiachra is a perfect gentleman, providing me with great support and advices during those 5 weeks.... I will always be grateful to him for setting me free. Best, Nick.

I was extremely sceptical at first to try those sessions, but only after the first one I felt a change, and it just got better with the 2nd and 3rd sessions.I wasn't able to get in elevators without being afraid, but just in one hour of Talk I was already fine with getting in one of those.1 hour of talk with Fiachra was more effective than 6 months of therapy.

My issues was public speaking anxiety. I decided I had had enough of the thoughts around public speaking controlling my work and home life. I googled and found Fiachra. He gave me a phone call and knew exactly what I was going through. We then started 1 hour online zoom sessions. The sessions were amazing. I now have a completely different mindset into how I think and look forward to public speaking. I had my first presentation at work and it just felt normal for the first time. That’s all I wanted was to feel normal speaking in a crowd. Fiachra has provided me with the thoughts to change my life. Thank you.

I had 6 sessions with Caitriona. I suffered from insomnia and was taking sleeping pills and even they stopped working. I also had anxiety and worried over things that might never happen. I have to admit it took a while for me to realise it was working, it works even when you don't think it is. Caitriona encouraged me all through it.It was online but it felt like Caitriona was in the room. I am sleeping much much better and I am now in a better place no more negative thoughts. The recording were an excellent help.Thank you so much Caitriona.

My sessions were with Fiachra. Right from the first session, I started to feel the benefit in how I feel about myself. Our sessions have helped me greatly improve my confidence and self-acceptance and have already been of great benefit to me both personally and professionally. You may want help in only one area, but the effect of the sessions is by nature much wider, so you will find it helps you in more ways than expected. Totally recommended 🙂

Hypnosis for Public Speaking

3. In recent years, hypnosis has emerged as an effective tool to address the fear of public speaking. Hypnosis, a state of focused attention and relaxation, helps individuals tap into their subconscious mind and reframe their beliefs and emotions. Through hypnotherapy, individuals can uncover the underlying causes of their fear and replace negative thought patterns with positive ones. This can help build confidence, reduce anxiety, and enhance performance in public speaking situations.

Here at the Hypnosis and Therapy Centre, we believe that while many therapies and techniques are used to help sufferers, they often do not resolve the issues themselves.

Instead, we use a multi-therapy approach including Hypnosis and Thought Field Therapy (TFT), which are two of the few therapies that work at the depths of consciousness. By using these methods, many issues can be resolved quickly and permanently.

These techniques are used to reduce and eliminate the overwhelming reactions related to public speaking.

Alternative treatments to insomnia and sleeping issues

During hypnosis sessions, a trained hypnotherapist guides individuals into a relaxed state and employs techniques like visualization, positive affirmations, and suggestion therapy. These techniques help individuals overcome their fear by rewiring their subconscious mind and instilling new empowering beliefs. With repeated sessions, individuals can experience a shift in their perception of public speaking, viewing it as an opportunity for growth and self-expression rather than a source of fear.

It is important to note that hypnosis is not a magical cure for glossophobia. This skill requires commitment, practice, and a willingness to confront and overcome fears.

Moreover, hypnosis should be pursued under the guidance of a qualified and experienced hypnotherapist who can tailor the sessions to individual needs.

Why do I feel this way, even when presenting over Zoom?

Public speaking anxiety, can be equally overwhelming whether one is delivering a presentation in person or via video conferencing platforms like Zoom.

Despite the physical separation and the seemingly more comfortable environment of one’s own space, the nervousness experienced during virtual presentations persists. There are several reasons why people get just as nervous in both scenarios.

Firstly, the fear of being judged remains constant. Whether it’s a live audience or a virtual one, the sense of scrutiny prevails. When presenting in person, individuals can directly observe the facial expressions, body language, and reactions of their audience, which can intensify anxiety. Similarly, during virtual presentations, people are acutely aware of being observed through the camera lens. The fear of negative evaluation, criticism, or making mistakes still looms, regardless of the medium.

Secondly, the lack of immediate feedback in virtual presentations can exacerbate anxiety. In face-to-face interactions, speakers receive immediate responses from the audience, which can help gauge their engagement and adjust their delivery accordingly. The absence of real-time feedback during online presentations can create uncertainty and heighten nervousness. The delay in reactions, limited non-verbal cues, and potential technical glitches add to the discomfort, making it challenging to establish a genuine connection with the audience.

Thirdly, the unfamiliarity of the digital medium itself can contribute to anxiety. While technology has facilitated remote communication, adapting to virtual platforms for presentations requires additional skills and familiarity. Technical difficulties, such as poor internet connection or unfamiliarity with the software, can create anxiety-inducing situations. The fear of being unable to navigate the technology effectively or experiencing unexpected interruptions can significantly impact one’s confidence and increase nervousness.

Response from the owner: Thank you Melissa! I'm thrilled to hear that you're feeling more confident and ready to “deal with it as it happens”— imagine everyone had this mindset (they can by the way) Imagine what removing these limiting beliefs in your life could do for you... This does not mean people can be careless and avoid planning. But our techniques and reprogramming of your mindset relieves you of unnecessary worry and anxiety. People can allow this to control their lives for months, years and lifetimes.I'm also glad the voice notes came in handy; who knew a mini-Fiachra in your pocket could be so useful? It was a pleasure supporting you through this journey. Hypnotherapy is truly an investment in yourself, and it’s wonderful to know it’s making a real difference. Thank you for sharing your experience.All the best,Fiachrahttps://hypnosisandtherapy.ie/hypnosis-faqs
Very professional and friendly service. I did 5 online sessions with Caitriona to quit smoking after 20 years, after every session I felt more relaxed and more confident in my ability to make the choice to not smoke. Coming into the busy holiday period I'm so happy to know that I won't be picking up the smoking habit again. Recommended for anyone who thinks they can never stop smoking but want to.
Response from the owner: Hi Cian,Thank you for your kind words.It is amazing what we can do when we focus on being in control, rather than trying to force ourselves to STOP a behaviour. This switch in perspective is what makes our programs so effective.You may have noticed already, but you will actually continue to notice little behaviour changes as the weeks and months go on, not only related to smoking, but your emotional responses and subconscious reactions to life's pressures.We wish you the best for 2024, but feel free to reach out if you feel the need.Take care,Caitríona Morrisonwww.hypnosisandtherapy.ie

Response from the owner: Hi Robert,Your story is going to touch a lot of people out there, so thank you for sharing.Being open, and being ready for this change (as you know) was probably the best thing you ever did, for you and your family.I hope you have been enjoying your new mindset over the last couple months. Life if not always fair, but there are magical times to be enjoyed, and sometimes that joy comes from the simplest of things.This new mindset that we have created together will hopefully enable you to take the good with the bad, and truly experience life as it is.Please let us know if we can help you further in any way.All the best,Fiachrawww.hypnosisandtherapy.ie
I was a heavy smoker. I felt I give a try to use a hypnosis therapy. we had one time session for 6 weeks. this is the fourth month I didn't even think about cigarette. Big thanks to Fiachra. Highly recommended.
Response from the owner: Hello,Thank you for sharing. It's amazing isn't it! But remember what I said, and what no other hypnotist will tell you....You are allowed to smoke! In fact, if you want to have a cigarette, please do!!This shows the power of our unique multi-therapy approach that we have developed over many years. Hypnosis plays a part in this, but it is the mindset towards smoking.We do not hypnotise you to stop smoking, we put you back in control of your behaviours and actions. This is one of the strongest superpowers anyone can have, the power of controlling their desires.Please let us know if we can help you, or someone you know in any way. And please tell your friends who smoke how EASY it is to change their habits.Kind regards,Fiachra Morrisonwww.hypnosisandtherapy.ie
My sessions were with Fiachra. Right from the first session, I started to feel the benefit in how I feel about myself. Our sessions have helped me greatly improve my confidence and self-acceptance and have already been of great benefit to me both personally and professionally. You may want help in only one area, but the effect of the sessions is by nature much wider, so you will find it helps you in more ways than expected. Totally recommended 🙂
Response from the owner: Hello Peter,Thank you for your kind words. You explained how we work quite beautifully. "You may want help in only one area, but the effect of the sessions is by nature much wider, so you will find it helps you in more ways than expected".We work very differently to other therapists, and the benefits of this mindset recording are seen very quickly in many areas of your life. You have probably found over time more and more areas in your life which have been positively affected.And I'm confident that there are areas where you are yet to notice an improvement, although others around you have already noticed :)We wish you the best Peter, and please know you can contact us at any stage if you feel the need.Take care,Fiachrawww.hypnosisandtherapy.ie
had four sessions with Fiachara. I can't say enough about him. A god send, makes you feel so relaxed. Felt even the first session made a difference but by the fourth I felt myself again . Happy and back to myself. I would highly recommend Fiachara the best decision I ever made ❤️
Response from the owner: Hello Sunny,Thank you for your kind words. At the Hypnosis and Therapy Centre we work swiftly to get our clients back in control of their own lives.I'm happy that we could help you get back in control and start to enjoy your life once again.Please let us know if we can help you further in any way.All the best,Fiachrawww.hypnosisandtherapy.ie

I was extremely sceptical at first to try those sessions, but only after the first one I felt a change, and it just got better with the 2nd and 3rd sessions.I wasn't able to get in elevators without being afraid, but just in one hour of Talk I was already fine with getting in one of those.1 hour of talk with Fiachra was more effective than 6 months of therapy.
Response from the owner: Hi Thibaut, thank you for your honesty!Claustrophobia is just the symptom of a much deep issue that can exist in one's unconscious mind. For someone else, it may be the overwhelming fear of bees, or that they have severe panic attacks, or that they cannot give up smoking, or that they are petrified of public speaking, or have an addiction they cannot kick!It all stems back to being in control of your own thinking and behaviours. That's what our programs cover, not just relieving the symptom. This is much deeper and empowering work!We specialise in using Hypnosis and a unique, multi-therapy approach to communicate with the subconscious mind, resolving underlying issues from the core. Working at the unconscious level, we can bypass all of the baggage and get straight to the core issue.We work very differently at the Hypnosis and Therapy Centre and we love to hear feedback like this. Keep an eye out for an email with your free Relaxation Audio!Thank you, Fiachrawww.hypnosisandtherapy.ie/hypnosis-faqs
Cáitriona was so patient and brought me to a place, FINALLY, that I am in control of my eating behaviours! I was your classic strict "12-week body transformation" gym goer, followed by months of binging and putting it all back on. I was obsessed with counting calories and being extremely hard on myself. I now allow myself to eat what I want with ease and in quantity I choose. I have released weight in a healthy sustainable manner whilst feeling the best version of me. Thank you Cáitriona for helping me heal myself.
Response from the owner: Thank you so much for your review! I'm certain that your situation resonates with so many people out there.Our programs are very different to what others may have experienced before. By helping you get back in control, you can actually go back to enjoying eating food rather than feeling guilty.As you know, you can actually eat whatever you want! Dieting is not required and your new mindset and subconscious behaviours towards food are completely reprogrammed.Now that you are back in control, this empowerment can be used towards other aspects of your life, and you can continue to achieve goal after goal.Let us know if we can help you further in any way!Take care,Caitríonawww.hypnosisandtherapy.ie
Excellent experience. I really recommend it to anyone. I could not be happier with my results. Many thanks!
Response from the owner: Hi Maria,Hope you are keeping well after your last session! Thank you for leaving a review and sharing your experience.Please let us know if we can help any further!Warm regards,Caitríonawww.hypnosisandtherapy.ie
Had a great experience with Caitríona she really helped me overcome with binge eating. Caitríona is lovely and really understanding. Would highly recommend
Response from the owner: Hello!Thank you for sharing. Hypnosis is extremely effective and fast acting when it comes to binge eating. People must understand that hypnosis can work in a variety of ways. All you have to do is read our other reviews to see the vast issues we have resolved.The premise is the same. Unwanted behaviours and emotional reactions are often the root cause of these issues. Smoking, binge eating, anxiety, insomnia, phobias, public speaking anxiety and self-confidence issues also result in unwanted behaviours - and Hypnosis is extremely effective in eliminating these issues too.I hope you continue to enjoy the benefits of your sessions. But please let us know if we can help you, your family or your friends!Take care,Caitríonawww.hypnosisandtherapy.ie
Although I will probably never understand how hypnotherapy works, it does and I don’t need to understand. How I will feel in 6 months time I have no idea but what I can say is my mindset is much more calmer with the destructive thoughts that have been haunting me very much in the distance and not able to intrude any more. That is all I asked for, no one can be happy all the time but everyone deserves to have peace of mind and Fiachra has given that to me
Response from the owner: Hi Jason,You now have a deeper understanding of your thoughts, which will continue to empower you and help you manage the stresses of life. That's the power of hypnosis and our programs. You will continue to notice subtle difference in your behaviours and reactions in the coming weeks and months.We hope you enjoy your free relaxation audio that we sent you. Please let us know if we can assist in the future, or if you feel you could benefit from a top-up session.Take care of yourself,Fiachrawww.hypnosisandtherapy.ie
A really fantastic experience with Fiachra over the course of the 5 sessions and many phone calls(I have to add the phone calls were at no extra cost and he really encouraged me to keep in touch between sessions to ask anything or clarify anything I wanted). He taught me how to see things in a different way, put a different perspective on the way we view how we think and act. His many analogies will stick with me forever as they really ingrain in my head this new way of thinking. He was easy to talk to, very easy to listen to and be guided by and very encouraging. It was a thoroughly worthwhile experience and I would highly recommend it to anyone who has anything at all in their lives they'd like to resolve. Thank you so much Fiachra for your generous time and the huge effort you put into each session and call.
Response from the owner: Thank you immensely for sharing your experience and for your generous words. It brings me great joy to hear about the positive impact our sessions together had on you.I'm truly delighted that you found value in our time together and appreciated the additional support provided through our phone calls.The calls in-between sessions are so important to the impact of the sessions. Doing what we do here at the Hypnosis and Therapy Centre is truly ground-breaking, and our commitment to our clients is what allows us to continue to grow both within Ireland, and globally to all continents of the world!It's great to know that the analogies I shared resonated with you and contributed to ingraining a new way of thinking. Helping individuals like yourself see things differently and navigate life's challenges with resilience and clarity is at the core of what I do.Your recommendation means the world to me, and I'm grateful for the opportunity to have been a part of your journey towards resolution and growth.Please know that I'm here to support you further if needed. Thank you once again for entrusting me with your well-being.Warmest regards,Fiachrawww.hypnosisandtherapy.ie
Caitriona and I worked together after I had a bad fall from my horse to retrain my subconscious and get my confidence back. I was very satisfied with the hypnotherapy and the results are becoming more apparent as time goes on.
Response from the owner: Thank you Tiffany for sharing your experience! It's heartening to know that are continuing to notice the positive changes and regaining your confidence, even after your sessions! Hypnotherapy can be incredibly effective in retraining the subconscious mind and helping individuals overcome obstacles.It's also amazing how quickly it can be effective! Some people go to therapy for years and do no experience the results that we can provide in a short space of time.That's because we can get to that deeper subconscious level, where a lot of our issues exist.If there's anything further I can assist you with as you continue on your journey, please don't hesitate to reach out.Enjoy what you love doing the most!Caitríonawww.hypnosisandtherapy.ie
I found hypnosis and therapy centre online as I was desperate to try anything that would aliviate my constant panic attacks and living on edge. I booked 3 in person sessions with Fiachra. I was super anxious heading to my first session but only a few minutes after entering and meeting Fiachra I felt comfortable and at ease. Fiachra is really amazing at what he does. I really felt lighter and much more relaxed after each session and my panic attacks were essentially none existent. Fiachra always insisted that I contact him whenever I needed and he would be there to help. A year later I could feel things were starting to slip for me again I was starting to feel panic coming back on. I reached out to Fiachra and he instantly got back to me and very kindly provided me with an online session out of his own time and at no cost to me. Just after chatting to him I felt better. I don't know how this works but it does. Fiachra is such a genuine guy and is really there to help. I am so grateful I crossed his path. Thank you for everything Fiachra !
Response from the owner: Hi Andrea,Thank you sharing.

I had a really bad fear of flying so bad that I actually jumped out of a plane a few months ago before it took off. I booked in with Fiachra and after 2 sessions I was up in the small planes in weston airport. After 4 sessions I went to spain and flew so comfortable I was able to really enjoy it. I would definitely recommend giving it a try I put it off as i didnt think it would work but it definitely did. Fiachra also took numerous phone calls and helped me with other issues I had going on, his service is 10/10.
Response from the owner: Hi Aaron,Thank you for sharing your story as this is a very common fear amongst others. The relief I'm sure you feel now will allow you to experience more and more as the months and years go on. Feel free to play catch up on holidays you have missed!Exciting times ahead. I'm glad I was able to have a small positive impact, so please let us know if you feel you could benefit from any of our programs in the future!Happy holidays!Fiachrawww.hypnosisandtherapy.ie

It has been a short while since your sessions, but I'm confident that you are still feeling the benefits!You know where we are if you, or anyone you know feels they could benefit in reaching out.Thanks again,Fiachra Morrisonhttps://hypnosisandmindsetcoaching.com
Response from the owner: Thank you Mirco! Hope you are doing well!
Cannot thank Fiachra enough! The experience was phenomenal - it brought me from a place of constant internal churn of negative feelings and frustration to one of calm, positivity and self acceptance, even after just one session. I was, and still am, amazed by how easy the process was and moreover, that it has sustained ever since! Each session improved on the outcome of the previous and I am so happy that I made the decision to give this a try. I feel better than I have in years, it’s hard to put into words what impact that has, only that I’m very grateful!
Response from the owner: It’s pretty amazing how easy it all was for you to experience such drastic change in your life... From feeling weighed down by negative emotions to experiencing lasting calm, positivity, and self-acceptance. It’s impressive how, even after one session, the changes were so impactful, yet some people still choose to suffer for many years in silence. Hearing that you feel better than you have in years is exactly the outcome I hope for with each client, and I’m honoured to have been a part of your journey. Thank you for taking the chance on this process and for sharing your experience!Take care,Fiachra https://hypnosisandmindsetcoaching.ie
I recently had a hypnosis session with Fiachra and it was an amazing experience! From the moment I arrived, I felt welcomed and at ease. Fiachra guided me into a deep state of relaxation, and I was surprised at how effective the session was.The personalised suggestions were spot on, and I noticed positive changes almost immediately afterward. I left feeling lighter, more focused, and motivated. I highly recommend him] for anyone looking to explore hypnosis. It truly was a transformative experience!
Response from the owner: Thank you Brian for your honest review! I’m delighted to hear that you felt comfortable from the start and that the session was so effective for you.

I’m glad the personalised suggestions resonated and brought about such positive, immediate changes in your life. Thank you for sharing your experience and for recommending hypnosis to others! Enjoy these new feelings of focus and motivation. You know where we are if you ever need.Fiachra Morrisonhttps://hypnosisandtherapy.ie/hypnosis-faqs

Lastly, the absence of a physical presence can affect the speaker’s energy and connection with the audience. In-person presentations allow for direct interaction, eye contact, and the ability to gauge the energy in the room. These elements play a crucial role in establishing rapport and capturing the audience’s attention. Virtual presentations, on the other hand, can feel more detached and impersonal. The inability to establish a strong physical presence and rely solely on verbal communication can heighten the fear of losing engagement and impact.

How to Overcome Anxiety When Speaking in Public

To overcome these challenges, it is essential to apply similar strategies used in traditional public speaking to virtual presentations. As mentioned above, preparing and practicing the presentation, familiarising oneself with the technology, and engaging the audience through interactive elements can help mitigate anxiety. Additionally, seeking feedback and incorporating opportunities for audience interaction can bridge the gap between virtual and in-person presentations.

In conclusion, the fear and nervousness associated with public speaking persist in both in-person and virtual settings. The fear of judgment, the lack of immediate feedback, the unfamiliarity of the digital medium, and the absence of physical presence all contribute to the anxiety experienced during online presentations. By acknowledging these challenges and implementing effective strategies, individuals can gradually overcome their anxiety and deliver impactful presentations regardless of the medium they choose.

If you feel you are ready to rid of your fears, we can organise a 22-minute Complimentary Breakthrough Session with Caitríona or Fiachra
